'"The Strongest Memory is Weaker Than the Weallesf Ink".

t:nAni.u'rrr;'i'owN. THURSDAY. NOV- 8- 1961

Symbol of our Gratitude in the cxciteniciil over the forthcoi ' lg visit of their Royal 1-lighnesscs let us t forget that Remembrance Day falls on Sun- day next and that in the meantime the an- nual poppy sale is being conducted under the auspices of the Canadian Legion. Every year the number of poppy em- blems distributed throughout Canada has increased until last year over four million poppies were worn by Canadians. But our population also is on the increase, and there; is nothing for us to he complacent about: in these figures. ' Througli the Legions national campaign.. the poppy symbol has come to mean more than just remembrance of the dead. Vie have the living with us yet, veterans of two world wars whose scars are still un- healed. Their families along with them- selves liavc made sacrifices out of all prow

portion to the rewards which in peacetime we bestow on public services performed. Not all of our veterans who survived sur- vived to prosperity. been subjects of DVA reh schemes. Care for them has fallen upon the Legion. among other agencies, and through this great organization we can all participate. in our small way, in repaying a debt of honour. Let us buy and wear our poppies in pride and thankfulness that the fate of so much of the present world has not fallen upon ourselves-largely because of the valour and sacrifice of those who fought and died for our deliverance.

. jloyous Antloloatlon,

'l'oiiiorruw will be a great day for Prince Edward Island. a day of holiday, gaiety and enthusiasm when old and young re- joice to have with us our very own Prin- cess and her gallant: husband. The Royal tour could have become a dreary round of official functions, endlessly repeated twice across a continent. That is. it could have been but. for the Royal couple and the Can- adian people.

In this Proviiice. forethought and imag- ination has been applied to making the most of the opportunity for the Princess and the Duke to become acquainted with our people and how they live, and form- landers to see as much as possible of Th'ei'r Royal Highncsses. The charm and grac- iousness displayed by them despite earlier concern for the health of His Majesty the King have won the hearts of all our citi- zens, who have thrilled with a love and pride which finds best expression in the cheers and greetings of the children.

Previous Royal vists have been remem- bered even after those who took part have passed away. The memory was cherished and the story told and retold to children and grandchildren. Of tomorrow we shall all have our own memories to join with those of earlier Islanders of our Princess's Royal forbears when they too were young.

Boom In Genealogy .

it seems that Canadians and Americans have started something of H boom in genealogical research in Britain. The basis of the development is the amount of ma- terial which has become available to re- searchers by the publication of parish reg- isters. marriage licence allegations and such like; and'particuiarly the mass of ev- idence contained in the volumes issued by the Public Record Office, the archives of the central government of Britain. ancient and modern.

The P. R. 0'5 l-listorical MSS. Commis- sion has carried on the work on papers of private families and in 1945 created a na- tional register of archives. The object was to organize the collection of information about and compilation of a central index of private and local archives of all dates and kinds.

"The effect has been to put, the tracing of family trees on in mass production basis and it seems that the demand for such in- formation iskeeping pace with the supply.

. Population on loomso

it is pleasing to note from the 1951 cen- Iuo figures issued by the Bureau of statis- tia: that our population in the past decade has increased by 2,740, to I total, ll of June this year, of 97,047. Tile

Queen's and Prince show increases, there was a decline in King's which, it is to be hoped, will be remedied in the years to come. s

We are still considerably short: of the 109,078 population we had in this Province more than half a century ago-a sad com- mentary on the biighting effects of cen- tralization which has beenpgoing on to the aggrandizement of the Upper Provinces ever since Confederation. However, the tide is reversing and we are at least able to say that we are now holding our own. The next ten years should see a marked improvement in our population standing, .if high freight rates can be circumvented by other transportation means and our basic producers brought upon a more equal level with their competitors in bthcr Pro- vinces.

John Milton, England's greatest epic poet, died this date" 1674. At Cambridge, Milton was distinguished but at first scarce- ly popular with undergraduates. He wrote a number of sonnets while there and then turned to the hexameter, writing '”Ad Patrem". ”L'Aliegro", "Ii Penseroso" and others. His ”Areopagitica" is a noble vind- ication oftthe freedom of the Press.

The future of the Liberal Party leader- ship is at stake says an Ottawa correspond- ent; Liberal M.P.'s insist they've had, no assurance yet that Prime Minister St. Laurent will 'lead his party into the next general election. It's an assurance that they'd like to have. If Mr. St. Laurent stays, Liberal parliamentarians would ex- pect to win the election without serious difficulty beyond the loss of a few seats. But if he should retire to become later our first Canadian Governor General-he will be 70 next February-I new leader might pose new election problems. There have been pepsistent reports to the effect that Prime; Minister St. Laurent would prefer to retire from public life in the near future if he could do so without embarrassing his supporters. Few Liberals believe that he would agree to lead them into I general election and then hand over his office to I lieutenant.
